I was a fool and spilled some tea over my Early 2011 MBP. I immediately switched it off, removed the battery and SSD and left it sealed in rice for 3 days. The only damage done is a few keys to the left don’t work. Unfortunately one of these keys is the shift key, and it registers as being always pressed. This means I ALWAYS boot into safe mode! I bought a Bluetooth keyboard but the laptop still boots in safe mode. Is there anyway I can disconnect the built in keyboard without pulling the power ribbon?

What do you think?
Jonathan Roberts
Maybe? There’s a built in feature to ignore the trackpad so I thought there might be one for the keyboard

The best thing you can do is take it all apart, and clean each individual component in demineralized water.

Dude. There is some way of changing what a key does in macOS. I forgot exactly how but at some point I made caps lock do nothing and I think it works for shift as well. Then you can make caps lock act as the shift key.

Be thankful, my laptop has its power key stuck. Might try the demineralized water idea

So they design ThinkPads to resisist water being spilt on them?
The soldier says, "Hey, you Navy guys don't wash your hands after pissing!"
The Sailor says, " We don't piss on our hands."

It'll still fuck up if you spill beer or soda on it, won't it?

in both cases the user spilling water is an idiot but only in one is the company also idiotic

Sorry mate, seems like remapping only works for caps, command, control and alt... that's kinda dumb but you know...
Isaac Martinez
Install keyremap4macbook and disable shift. There you go.
